Wyckoff Summer Academies - In the Painting class, students learn the basics of painting including shadowing, highlighting, and blending as they follow along with the teacher's live demonstration. In the 3rd and 4th grade Building Masters class, students create Lego, K’NEX, Keva blocks, and other material builds and challenges together. In the 5th-7th Coding class, students created video games and had others play their games to get feedback to improve their projects. Photo credits: Kelly Vincent, Kim Simon, and Jason Opremcak

The 8th Grade Awards Ceremony will take place in the Eisenhower MPR on June 5, 2023 from 3-4 PM. The ceremony can also be viewed via a livestream at this link: https://www.youtube.com/@ETVEisenhower/featured. Streaming will begin approximately 5 minutes before the event.
In their annual event, the EMS React Club and the Student Council joined Staff members from Oasis who brought 95 children, ranging from kindergarten to 7th grade, on two school buses from Paterson. Their two-hour visit included games to play in the gym and arts and crafts to do in the cafeteria. A theme of international travel gave the visitors a chance to decorate Australian boomerangs, make beaded bracelets, construct an Eiffel Tower using toothpicks and marshmallows, assemble Chilean rainsticks, and design paper versions of Middle Eastern rugs. Oasis students also decorated cupcakes that EMS students had baked. The cupcakes served as a dessert after a pizza dinner. Oasis staff members and students thanked Eisenhower's students and staff for the many hours spent planning and hosting the event.
Happy Teacher Appreciation Week!
